I miss the heavy rumble of previous corvettes
Yeah this sounds like a 4 cylinder
You could FEEL the C7. Sitting in the grandstand at Watkins Glen, with both cars just idling in the pits. That was an awesome car if not for just the theatre.
Agreed. This is underwhelming. Lol.
@@Wpjgdmtu which is strange since it looks the production version will sound like a 458. I am guessing the exhaust pipes don't merge, although even the previous LT5.5 still sounded good
@@somebloke2238 no
As much as I prefer to C7 this looks much more planted & the design looks like it belongs on a track, awesome footage as always!
the only thing is that it doesnt look like a Corvette anymore. A real bummer for me. It has nothing to do with what Corvette was supposed to be. They could just give it another name.
@@Druze_Tito every corvette is supposed to be different from the last
@@floppa933 Not true. They kept the same approach until the last generation. They were all the same spiritual successors to the previous generation. Not true with the latest one.
Chevy somehow managed to make the road going version sound better than the race version
Idk why some people don’t like the sound of the C8R. I’ve been to Watkins Glen and Daytona 24 and this vibrations and downshifts sound amazingly aggressive. But I’m sure the c7r rumbles like a proper American thunder
Chevy needs to make more C8Rs. So few are raced. IMSA and the odd LMS race. This GT3 spec should make them easier to provide to customer teams.
One of the Chevy guys was speaking during the WEC broadcast and they are certain that they can sell more than 30 customer cars, sounds pretty exciting. I hope we get some in Europe as well and not just the US ^^.
They will, you just have to wait until 2024. Until then you will only see them in IMSA and WEC.
I much prefer the new C8 Z06 to older versions (including their sound) but the old C7.R sounds way better then the C8.R
C6.R is still my favorite. Also I know that thing can rev. But the engine sounds like its barely being wound up.
Thank you for the Corvette Content, I've been following your channel for years, keep it up 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
I miss the v8 thunder from the c5R C6R C7R the c8R sounds like a Ferrari I miss the noise of old corvette race cars
Excellent Car Design & Sounds. Thank you for sharing! 🚖🏎 🙏
I love the c8.r
breaking on les combes and downshifting from 6th to 3rd was brutal AF!
2:42 Hello Nick
bro do you have more footage of glickenhaus 007?
Yes, offcourse. I will post a video about it sound.
awesome
watch out c8 coming👍
All hail the new design! I'm wondering if everyone that influenced the previous design with the long ass hood died off. If so, GOOD RIDDANCE!!!
I prefer the sound of the old C7, this sounds like a Honda Civic
Engine: 90° V8 NA mid mounted / 5500 cc / 335.6 cu in ←this engine is OHV?
And 4 OHC's
Certainly not the monster its predecessors were
Anyway You look at it it's good to see an American car that can compete!
I like the car don't get me wrong but i kinda expected a different sound from a 5.5L NA V8.
how much cool
Sorry,Its not a patch on the older RWD Corvettes.Sounds a bit lame too☹
The car is already great as it its. Imagine when tuners get their hands in that sweet naturally aspirated engine?
C7>C8
👍👍👌💪
Did they change the Eau'rouge somehow? The rise, the steepness of the turn? Or was only the road surface replaced
It's still not usual to see a mid-engined Corvette. But he's adorable in his own way
New tarmac and more run-off space. The barriers have been moved much further.
The corner itself hasn't changed.
@@Belgian-Motorsport Thanks for the answer! Thus, we also press the throttle to the floor)
Good luck with new videos. Spectacular races and a delightful roar of engines
Some drivers said they smoothed the track in that part, there seems to be a bit less compression and it's easier to go flat out.
Chevy hit it way way out of the park on this C8.R... it's like a 3 or 4 100k Car... how can they ever steep up from this one ???
It sounds pretty shit compared to the older models.

C6.R just sounds thunderous.
👌©️👏👍👀
When the Corvette looses all the testosterone, absolutely nothing american in that car other than the logo.
It just blends in with all the other paddle shifted Sea of blandness, the fkn driver hardly does anything now apart from concentrate.
@James Wheeler iI does in my World of realism, maybe not in yours., all the modern crap sounds exactly the same, just like that dull as dishwater F1 junk
@James Wheeler You are clutching at straws.....its a generic thing, paddle shifted boring modern day junk, my DD makes 940HP with a Viper engine...and has a 6 speed manual T56 behind it.....you are trying to convince the wrong person LOL
@James Wheeler The original topic was you trying to correct me, "It doesn't"......does in my World, see how that works?.I bet you were born post 1990.....
@James Wheeler "Dude"?...so you were born after '90, I get it now, , see ya.
Without watching i can listen the screaming melody of 911
C8 is a complete shit for me
Sound wise it is.
@James Wheeler for me is not a race car sound
@James Wheeler I miss the loud rumble the old V8 makes.
Crazy how this looks more fake than gran tourismo 7
Wdym?
I'm really sorry fellas .. But if your a GenZ person go back and listen to the glorious music made by the bad boy 427 L-88 race car taking the turns at the glen Or Laguna seca then listen to the C8-R and tell me which music you wanna hear ?
